US ITC voted to continue investigation on rebar imports from Japan, Taiwan and Turkey

The United States International Trade Commission (US ITC) determined on November 3rd that there is a reasonable indication that the US industry is materially injured by reason of imports of steel concrete reinforcing bars from Japan, Taiwan, and Turkey that are allegedly sold in the United States at less than fair value and subsidized by the government of Turkey. All six Commissioners voted in the affirmative.

As a result of the ITC’s affirmative determinations, the US Department of Commerce will continue to conduct its antidumping and countervailing duty investigations on imports of this product from Japan, Taiwan, and Turkey, with its preliminary countervailing duty determination due on or about December 14, 2016, and its preliminary antidumping duty determinations due on or about February 27, 2017.
